Plans to construct what could become the world's tallest building, at more

The Dubai developer Nakheel – the company that created man-made islands in the 
  shapes of a palm tree and the world – said the structure would be the 
  centre-piece of an inner-city harbour planned as the emirate's unofficial 
  capital.

It would not comment on the exact height or cost of the Islamic 
  design-inspired Nakheel Tower. The building will have "more than 200 
  floors" and be part of "a multi-billion pound development", 
  the company said.
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/dubai/3142023/New-plans-for-worlds-tallest-building-unveiled-in-Dubai.html"><P>
The tower and harbour project will take more than 10 years to complete. Apart 
  from the landmark structure, there will be another 40 towers, ranging in 
  height from 20 floors to 90 floors. The entire development will be home to 
  more than 55,000 people and a workplace for more than 45,000.
